Resulting Oil costs (and not politics)

Just curious, maybe someone can clear the fog from my eyes. OK, so we're at war with Iran. And gas prices go up. Even though USA is oil self-sufficient, how come does gas at the pump rise? Clearly what's already in the oil to gasoline pipelines was extracted at lower costs, (before this Iran thing), retailers are upping the prices. Anticipation of higher cost crude? Maybe, 'market prices'? Maybe, but seems more like the big oils are making a ton more money but raising gasoline prices (OF GAS IN THEIR HOLDING TANKS) before increased cost of crude hits the refineries. Recognize my econ degree was decades ago, but no one quesions, nor do we consumers balk at filling up at a buck or so more than the day before this war erupted.

HC Ryan Day (B1G Coach of Year, B1G Champion, National Champion)

The fact that he's 2nd on that graphic is infuriating
The fact someone would be infuriated because a coach's picture is placed on a chart according to his job title (offensive coaches then defensive coaches) would seem to indicate a bit of obsessive anger issues. :rofl:

Bracketology and Selection Sunday Discussion

Assuming OSU is an 8 or 9 seed, that means they will be placed in a pod with a #1 seed. UM can't be in the same pod as OSU as they have played each other 3 times. So that leaves Duke, Arizona and (likely) Florida. Of the R64 sites this season, Duke is going to be closest to Greenville, SC, Florida closest to Tampa, and Arizona to San Diego. So I would expect OSU to be going to one of Greenville, Tampa, or San Diego. I'm going to guess OSU will be an 8 or 9 seed in Greenville with Duke.
Joey Brackets has OSU in Tampa as a #8, because he also has Georgia (and Clemson) on the 8 line, and he puts Georgia in the pod with Duke and OSU in the pod with Florida. I'm not sure if Lunardi is right - usually he is somewhat off, but certainly Tampa is at least the second-most likely location for OSU.
